我想把我自己的经验总结一下,前面发过几贴,一起并到这里. [b] 希望对大家有帮助. [b][b]一.作文结构 [b][b] TWE作文主要是议论文,由开头段(Opening Paragraph),正文(Body)和结尾(Conclusion)三部分组成.开头段提出文章的要点,介绍你要议论的话题,提出自己的观点.正文是文章主题的展开.他可以由几个展开段组成.一个完整的展开段也应该包括主题句,支持句,和结尾句.结尾 [b][b] 前面分析过一篇范文,比较符合这个结构,当然如果你是一个老练的作者,完全可以 [b]不这样. [b][b]Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? When people succeed, [b]it is because of hard work; luck has nothing to do with success. Use [b]special reasons and examples to support your answer. [b][b]I am afraid I cannot agree with the statement that success is only because [b]of hard work and luck has nothing to do with it. To my mind, success is [b]essentially based on two factors----hard work and luck. There would be no [b]success without either one of the tow factors. A fine combination of both [b]hard work and luck eventually leads to successes.首段提出观点 [b][b]An old saying goes, “no pains, no gains”. It is absolutely true that [b]without exerting oneself, one could never expect to achieve success in what [b]one is doing. So, hard work is the foundation of success. As is known to [b]all, there is no royal road to the summit of success. One is likely to [b]succeed only when one has worked with whole-hearted devotion and [b]perseverance. Those who are lazy, sloppy and indifferent to their work, [b]those who never concentrate on work will definitely end in failure. So, [b]hard work is seen as an interior precondition of success.这段解释观点的一个 [b]方面 [b][b]On the other hand, successful people know how to seize and make the best [b]use of opportunity available to them. To them, opportunity is an exterior [b]precondition of potential success. By opportunity I mean luck, which is [b]often seen as a catalytic agent to success. To quote from a proverb, “man [b]proposes, god disposes”这里是不是用了一个成语谋事在人成事在天.一般不提倡这 [b]样,因为老外的文化背景和中国人不同.可能不明白,也很难翻译., hard work alone [b]does not necessarily contribute to success. What one needs most is the work [b]of both man and God put together. Man’s wisdom and the luck he has been [b]granted are a sure guarantee of a successful career. Hard work is to luck [b]what fish is to water. They are inseparable from each other, and put [b]together, they make a great success.这段解释观点的另一个方面 [b][b]Here I would like to mention the great inventor Einstein as the best of [b]examples. We all know that Einstein established the Theory of Relativity, [b]but his fate could never have been any better than that of other Jews [b]during the Second World War if Hitler had come to power earlier. It is not [b]hard for us to imagine what Einstein would have become of under Hitler’s [b]domination.这段举例子说明 [b][b]Hard work lays the corner-stone for building a house while luck serves to [b]cement it, to make the building bricks adherent to one another. They are [b]the twins that contribute to success together. While hard work is the [b]decisive factor from within, luck is the decisive factor from without. 结论 [b][b] 红字标出的部分.好象是文章的骨架..所谓的模板就是这个..要有自己的模板.然后举例说理.搭个好架子,写的有血有肉..我觉得这样的文章可以打5分或者更高了.还发过一个帖子从书上引了一些转承接的词. [b] http://bbs.gter.net/bbs/showthread.php?threadid=174964 [b][b] 可以用这些词来搭建自己的模板.到了考场上有那么一个模板,你用的很熟练,很放心.觉得很好.就可以了. [b][b] TWE考试是[url=http://www.gter.net/news/content.jsp?type=TOEFL]TOEFL[/url]考试的第一部分.因此好坏影响到后面考试的情绪.不能写的时候老怀疑自己这么写是不是有问题.一来时间不够,二来影响听力考试.平时练习的时候就要有一些自己熟悉的套路,表达方法. [b][b]二.如何练习TWE作文,(对不是很有英语短文写作经验的人) [b][b] 可以先自己写一篇.第一次写不用限时,但是不要查字典.想表达的用英语表达出来,不要走翻译路线..写4段.第一段阐述你支持的观点,第二段阐述你的理由(1) ,第三段阐述你的理由(2),第四段结论. [b][b] 刚开始的目标是把每个英语句子写正确.在写下去的时候就要安排好这个句子的布局.主语,谓语,从句,非谓语形式都要想好.要想想TOEFL语法的考点.一篇文章下来没几个句子完全正确,分就很低了.写完之后象做语法改错一样,把自己的文章从头到尾检查两遍. [b][b] 然后看看范文..看看里面有那些内容也是你在你的文章里想表达的.看看范文作者是如何表达的.学习一下.然后再写一次.写完了请人修改 [b][b] 一星期这样写两篇..相信会有提高.其实TOEFL作文要求不是很高.只要语法正确,内容充实和符合逻辑.就没问题. [b][b] 这里是已经考过的作文题目 [b] http://bbs.gter.net/bbs/showthread....threadid=152091 [b][b][b]三.写作时间安排 [b][b] 30分钟写300字命题作文,对不太有英文写作经验的人来说,难度比较大.把这30分钟分成三个时间段,比较有效率: [b] 第一时段:审题构思.把题目和要求看清楚,理清思路.想好要写的观点,理由例子,接下来才能下笔有神.一般3~5分钟 [b] 第二时段:正文.一般20分钟. [b] 第三时段:检查,3~5分钟.这个我觉得对作文水平不是很高的人特别重要,要努力检查.把那些主谓一致,时态一致.单复数.句子结构,词的用法,拼写,标点,大小写,里的低级错误都找出来.往往可以让你的文章分数提高一个档次. [b][b]四.凭分标准 [b][b]Score 6---Scoring Guidelines [b][b]An essay at this level [b]----effectively addresses the writing task [b]----is well organized and well developed [b]----uses clearly appropriate details to support a thesis or illustrate ideas [b]----displays consistent facility in the use of language [b]----demonstrates syntactic variety and appropriate word choice [b][b]Sample Essay [b][b]Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? [b]Teachers should make learning enjoyable and fun for their students. Use [b]reasons and specific examples to support your opinion. [b][b]I do strongly support the idea that teachers should make learning enjoyable [b]and fun for the students. This I support with the following reasons. [b][b]First let us take the psychological component of a student. A child or [b]student will be more receptive to anything including studies if the subject [b]matter is presented in an interesting and enjoyable manner. If not, there [b]is every likelihood that the student will be unwilling to accept or even [b]reject the matter presented as he considers studying is a burden on him. [b][b]My second point is that the present-day student faces tremendous amount of [b]distractions such as interesting television programs, drugs, distractions [b]from opposite sexes and many more. To get the students away from all these [b]and to get him interested in studies there is obviously no other better way [b]than to make learning interesting. [b][b]The present-day students are also pressured with tremendous amount of [b]competition among fellow students. With this mounting pressure on them [b]coupled with the high expectation of the parents, it will lighten the [b]burden on the young students with a more acceptable form of presentation [b]that is in an enjoyable and fun manner. [b][b]Retention is another factor that should be considered important. Any [b]presentation given in an interesting or enjoyable manner can be retained [b]well by the students. If the subject matter presented is uninteresting, [b]then there is strong likelihood the student will forge the subject matter [b]presented in days or even hours. [b][b]When presenting a subject the teacher should create a desire among the [b]students to crave for more knowledge on the subject and this can certainly [b]be obtained if the subject is presented in a fun and enjoyable manner. [b][b]It can also be said that the present-day communications system is so [b]advanced and there are ample teaching aids and techniques to make teaching [b]fun and enjoyable. So why not utilize the opportunities to the full so that [b]the student at the receiving end can benefit to the full. [b][b]At last but not at least, I wish to say that by making teaching fun and [b]enjoyable the life expectancy of both the student and the teacher can be [b]extended. [b][b]Score 5 ----Scoring Guidelines [b][b]An essay at this level [b]---may address some parts of the task more effectively than others [b]---is generally well organized and developed [b]---uses details to support a thesis or illustrate an idea [b]---displays facility in the use of language [b]---demonstrates some syntactic variety and range of vocabulary [b][b][b]Score 4 ----Scoring Guidelines [b][b]An essay at this level [b]---addresses the writing topic adequately but may slight parts of the task [b]---is adequately organized and developed [b]---uses some details to support a thesis or illustrate an idea [b]---demonstrates adequate but possibly inconsistent facility with syntax and [b]usage [b]---may contain some errors that occasionally obscure meaning [b][b][b]Score 3----Scoring Guidelines [b][b]An essay at this level [b]---may reveal one or more of the following weaknesses [b]---inadequate organization or development [b]---inappropriate or insufficient details to support or illustrate [b]generalizations [b]---a noticeably inappropriate choice of words or word forms [b]---an accumulation or errors in sentence structure and /or usage [b][b]Score 2----Scoring Guidelines [b][b]An essay at this level [b]---is seriously flawed by one or more of the following weakness [b]---serious disorganization or underdevelopment [b]---little or no details or irrelevant specifics [b]---serious and frequent errors in sentence structure and usage [b][b]Score 1---Scoring Guidelines [b][b]An essay at this Level [b]---may be incoherent and incomplete [b]---may be underdeveloped [b]---may contain severe and persistent writing errors [b][b] 从这个判分标准可以看到,只要字数写够,组织的好,写对每个句子,就可以至少有4分了. [b][b] 其他想想也没什么了.可能这么弄,TOEFL文章变成八股了.但是对于作文底子不是很好的同学.我觉得还是一种可取的复习方法.希望对大家有帮助. [b][b] 大家可以把自己写好的作文贴上来,互相修改.给别人修改,可以避免犯别人犯过的错误,也是一种很有益的提高.象[url=http://www.gter.net/news/content.jsp?type=GRE]GRE[/url]作文版学习..呵呵,营造一种务实的备考气氛.
